Obama has done his best to represent me. His ideas of raising taxes to pay for government are the best ideas on the table. His ideas of spending money to keep our country in competitive shape are the best ideas on the table. Reining in the financial sector would do a lot to help the middle class, but has seen GOP obstruction in everything ranging from funding to appointments, but the GOP would be a total disaster.

Very good post, Robert. I have been frequently challenged by Howgozit who seems to feel I fail to place blame on Dems even tho I’m certain I do where warranted. That said, I have yet to see Howgozit post any criticism of conservative actions/inactions. If his stand is that there is only one party to blame for our nation’s problems, and that these problems only began on the day Obama took the oath of office, then I fear the answer he’d give eloquent question is going to be, No. A response we hear way too often from Republicans.Been enjoying your other posts too, Mr. Landers. Keep up the good work.Respectfully,C.

Ken, if that elephant uses the word “makeover” in front of others then its already started. I think NeoconMan has it figured out- as usual. If the elephant gets a few more votes in the correct places then there is celebration. But I don’t think there is a plan to be a party that reaches out to all…it will be to “just enough”

Maybe Republicans would need less of a makeover if they actually supported the principles they claim to adhere to.-Smaller government? What Republican administration has reduced the size of government?-Fiscal responsibility? Wars, tax cuts, stimulus, Medicare Part D, all without paying for them.-Lower taxes? Lower INCOME taxes only, especially for the wealthy. Republicans have NO problem raising payroll taxes and sales taxes. -National security? Yeah, invade Iraq instead of finishing Afghanistan. Not to mention 9/11.-Friendly to business? Not according to the stock market, which doubled in the last four years.-Anti illegal immigration? They why do they scream if there is an attempt to prevent them from hiriing illegals?-If Republicans actually were the party they claim to be, I might even join them. But they’re not.

Thank you, that was very kind. Kindness and compliments sometimes being in very short supply on these particular boards!

I also enjoy your posts, as like myself you are also neither a part of either extreme of the political spectrum, but also comment on the merits of a particular subject regardless of political ideology or Party. Please, also keep up your own excellent posts.

About Ken Catalino

Ken Catalino is a conservative cartoonist who is happiest puncturing balloons filled with the lightweight gas of liberal idealism. This doesn’t prevent him from criticizing conservatives on occasion, if reason and rationality are violated
